Virtual Assembly System for Robot Actor in Performing Art

Recently, the robots are being used in the field of the performing art. The improved motion and cost reduction of the robots are drawing attention. In this paper, the authors propose an assembly system for the virtual robot actor based on 3D virtual environment. This paper proposed system is to provide functionalities on the virtual robot assembly, so the user can build the users own unique virtual robot. The assembly of the virtual robot is based on the virtual motor parts having the specification (e.g., torque, weight and available range) and appearance of the real motor part.
